Sheridan has been trying to stay in the same room with Antonio and the others and every time that he tells her how much she means to him, Sheridan is overcome with the guilt of it all.

Rebecca still lunges for the woman but Theresa dodges her lunge and circles around the wheelchair to get away. Rebecca is angry with Ivy for letting this happen. Ivy was supposed to have control over her son and make sure that this very thing didn’t happen. Theresa thinks that Rebecca should be jumping for joy as she signed the divorce papers for Julian. That will allow Rebecca to marry Julian as that is what she really wants. Rebecca is thrilled that Theresa signed the divorce papers, but she really thinks that Theresa is crazy to give up her millions. Rebecca would have had to draw the line there herself.

Maybe Sam can help Ethan come to a decision on the things that are plaguing him. Sam isn’t sure that he will have the answers, but he will gladly try.
Grace and David come into John’s room with his soup. John is sitting up and smiling and he feels much better. John feels better now that his mother is there.

Sam can see that Ethan is faced with a difficult situation. Ethan loves both women but Theresa is more of a soul mate. Theresa proved her love for him over and over. Gwen on the other hand, has been with him for years. He would like her to be happy too. He almost married her. If Theresa didn’t come along, Ethan would have been married to Gwen by now. Ethan finds that he is in the same position that Sam was in years ago. Sam loved Ivy and then Julian came in between them. Ethan knows that Sam still has feelings for Ivy but the difference was that Sam didn’t know that Ivy was pregnant at the time.

The babies are jumping all over the room. Connie and Cecil are trying to round up the babies and trap them in the closet again. Connie doesn’t understand why they have to get the babies anyway. Tabitha wants it that way so they better do as they are told. Connie sees that the babies are getting away and she and Cecil run after them.
Tabitha is still dreaming and she is in the cage ordering the babies to get her out of the damn cage. The babies come into the room where Tabitha is dreaming on the couch and they jump on the couch. Tabitha wakes up and Connie and Cecil tell her that the babies have gotten loose. Tabitha warns the dolls that they have to get the babies or they will wreak havoc on the people of Harmony.
Ethan is curious as to what Sam would have done if he knew that Ivy were pregnant when he was leaving her. Grace and David have come up on Sam talking to Ethan. Grace hates to interrupt them talking.

Grace is stunned by the news and leans on David for support.
Rebecca and Ivy have difficulty telling Theresa the news that they have. Ivy decides that she will be the one.
